Beyonce Knowles Lawsuit for Plagiarizing

The song “Dangerously In Love” presented on Beyonce Knowles album published in February 2003 seems to have created a bit of trouble for her.
Fans should refrain from sending their favorite artists words or music because it's so easy, and however inadvertent it may be they sometimes show up in the artist's music. Sure, words and combinations of musical notes are free, but how do you prove that two people didn't come up with the exact same things? The most difficult thing to prove is a negative.
It happens and each finds themselves claiming they are the originators in a court room. Such an incident took place when a singer-songwriter, Jennifer Armour submitted a demo of her song to Beyonce entitled “Got A Little Bit Of Love For You” way back in 2003. Armour claims Beyonce ripped her off in one of Beyonce's own “originals”.
Upon hearing the courts decision Beyonce said: “It's unfortunate that lawsuits occur, but I am grateful and relieved to have this one behind me and am eager to move on.”
Those who produce a “product” of any kind and blithely send them off to another hoping to sell the item should understand that a similar sound, or similar words to a song, can be used when several words are changed or in different positions, but resemble, or give the exact meaning. They are not considered plagiarized.
With the English language we often do say exactly the same statements as many others, Our every utterance is not protected by law, or a chance to enter a courtroom. Anything one wants to spread around to others who desire to make it their own must copyright it before sending it anywhere for their protection and anyone who seemingly copies it needs to change the words or the notes to some degree in order to use them.
It's a tough decision no matter what, and which love song is different and not repetitious? Plagiarism must consist of copying the exact same phraseology before it can be call plagiarized. And to save oneself from plagiarism, but copy something word for word, or note for note, they must give credit to the real originator publicly and by name, and perhaps pay a fee to the original composer for so doing. But, perhaps the safest method is to receive permission from the originator for the use in the beginning.
